The Departure
- The Departure-
Tinder leafy twirl
Paper origami girl
Vortex cyclonic swish
Her lift a black Subaru
Such kisses blown departing wave
Mistook my greeting for a grave
Leaves and kisses
Lie now remaining still
On our dreamt up driveway
Stony statue petrified
Concrete gargoyles kept inside
Love embalmed and mummified
Chaste behind that leaving car
Leftover stares at looking through rooms
Rancid wine repeats - its done
Mistakes were made and multiplied
Muted violin without a bow
And love goes on
And life goes gone
